TechHive launched in 2012 as a general consumer tech site and narrowed its focus to smart home and video streaming in 2017. Starting now, all new TechHive content will be published on our sister site PCWorld in a dedicated TechHive section.
Why the change? PCWorld reaches a much larger audience of tech enthusiasts, DIYers, and early adopters. With a publishing history that began in 1983 and an online presence since 1992, PCWorld offers a broader platform for the kind of home-technology coverage TechHive produces.
As digital and physical security increasingly overlap, it also makes sense to fold TechHive’s smart-home security reporting into PCWorld’s expanding security coverage. You’ll find TechHive stories on security cameras, video doorbells, smart locks, smart lighting, and related topics on PCWorld’s smart-home security pages.
Jared Newman’s Cord-Cutter Confidential column and our broader video streaming coverage—core parts of TechHive’s identity for the past seven years—will continue on PCWorld as well.
We’re also relaunching the TechHive YouTube channel. New videos are already live, and we’ll publish a steady stream of product demos and hands-on coverage timed to major events like CES 2025 in January.
Going forward we’ll keep covering the devices and categories TechHive readers expect while expanding into more lifestyle-focused home tech and health and wellness technology—areas that pair naturally with PCWorld’s long history of serving early adopters.
Please visit the new TechHive hub on PCWorld for all new content. Much of TechHive’s security and streaming archive has already been migrated, and new articles will appear on PCWorld. The original TechHive site will continue to provide access to the legacy library.
